Intro two bars Jesus once was a little child, A little child like me; And he was pure & meek & mild, As a little child should be. So, little children, Let's you and I Try to be like him, Try, try, try. Interlude two bars He played as little children play The pleasant games of youth; But he never got vexed if the game went wrong, And he always spoke the truth. So, little children, Let's you and I Try to be like him, Try, try, try. Try, try, try.
